is good to have copies available again. We are also able to hold the
original price, too. Military Aircraft designations
catalogued from 1913 to...

Dear fellow aviation enthusiasts,
I recently purchased X-Plane and had such an interesting experience that
I thought I'd share (see http://home.nc.rr.com/bshankle/xplane.html).

Designing a good plane
Make it as aerodynamic as possible.
Make a point at the tip of the nose so it slices through the air.
Try to add some weight to the nose.

There's a debate going on over in rec.crafts.metalworking about what
type of igniton was used on the original Flyer, and on the replica, if
it's different from the original. Does it use a mag and sparkplugs, or
the old make-break contacts inside the combustion chamber to produce
the spark?

Hello all:
My Jr. Ace is still not done, so in order to visit Oshkosh this year, I'll
have to drive up. We plan on arriving Friday evening and staying in Camp
Scholler through the weekend. From those with experience, do you think it
will be possible to get a camping spot that late in the week? ...

Intercoolers of the same config. were used on early model P-38's. They ducted
pressurized air along the insides of the leading edges, then into the carb.
They all had problems with cooling efficency and leaks.
Several famous Thompson Trophy (sea/float planes) winners used surface
radiators to...

Over the last 4 years I've built a Pietenpol Aircamper, had it licenced last
fall, and have flown off the 25 hours. Now it's time to put in an intercom
for the front hole. I have two David Clark headsets already, and am running
an A-65 with unshielded ignition.
All the intercoms in the ads show a...
